Whoops! Study Accidentally Finds Chemotherapy Makes Cancer Far Worse

A team of researchers looking into why cancer cells are so resilient accidentally stumbled upon a far more important discovery. While conducting their research, the team discovered that chemotherapy actually heavily damages healthy cells and subsequently triggers them to release a protein that sustains and fuels tumor growth. Beyond that, it even makes the tumor highly resistant to future treatment.

It seems a chinese plant, known as the ‘thunder god vine’ or lei gong teng can help fight tumours.

A little-known plant with a truly bizarre name is now making headlines as a cancer killer, with the compound of the plant vanishing tumors in mice with pancreatic cancer. Known as the ‘thunder god vine’ or lei gong teng, the Chinese plant is actually integrated into Chinese medicine and has been used for ages in remedying a number of conditions including rheumatoid arthritis.

According to the new research out of the University of Minnesota’s Masonic Cancer Center, the thunder god plant compound led to no signs of tumors after a 40 day period — even after discontinuing the treatment. Published in the journal Science Translational Medicine and funded by the National Institutes of Health, even the scientists working on the project were stunned by the anti-cancer properties of the compound. Known to contain something known as triptolide, which has been identified as a cancer fighter in previous research, it is thought to be the key component that may be responsible for the anti-tumor capabilities.Study leader and vice chairman of research at the Cancer Center explained to Bloomberg how he was blown away by the effects of the simple plant:“This drug is just unbelievably potent in killing tumor cells,” he said.

I'm convinced you can have cancer and never know it and recover just fine on your own without any clue that you ever had cancer.

once the doctors get ahold of you, good luck.

Stay away from them and their diagnoses and their drugs!

I wonder if you are right, I had an experience about four years ago ...I found a lump, went to a doctor and she couldnt find it...so I had a scan and they couldnt find it, yet I could...easily and everytime.I changed my diet a little and that little grain of rice that was out of place eventually disappeared.The change in my diet was small...no bread. I eat pretty well.

When they give you the cure rate of any specific cancer - let's say testicular is 98% cured - sounds great! What they don't tell you about are the "side effects" of the cure. You'll die from another cancer. But the initial cure rate isn't effected.

Great game, milks money every which way and kills ya anyway, great game.

oh and yes, I do know this from family experience. just a little miffed still.

May I ask what kind of scan?

I saw a program where a doctor mentioned that a person receiving a CT scan was being exposed to anywhere from 100 to 500 x-rays as a result of that one scan. He then went on to say that the individual could potentially end up with cancer from that scan inside of a decade or two. So I did some checking online and found quite a bit of information on not only the cancer risks of CT scans but also many other diagnostic procedures that are routinely done.

X-rays from a single full-body CT scan give a dose of radiation similar to cancer-associated radiation doses in A-bomb survivors, finds David J. Brenner, PhD, director of Columbia University's center for radiological research.

This has been known for a while now but it's not advertised! It's a shame that many with cancer still fall for the Big Pharma line

...and the terrible part is if you suggest anything is wrong with taking chemo to a family member with cancer(or even if they are just at risk) they will quickly attack you and label you as not having their best interests in mind...I've had a few older family members succumb, and I've learned to never bring up alternative therapies or anything wrong/bad with chemo as a whole. The vast majority of folks accept it, even if as a necessary evil and will always trust themselves to their doctor's orders.

How come high school dropouts have known this for their entire adult lives, and yet these "brilliant" doctors who went through 8 years of "medical" school have no clue?

It just cracks me up, the "educated" idiots that this world is full of.

In Satan's world, idiots and evil people prosper.

I really MARVEL at retards who actually TRUST doctors with their lives. I won't go to a doctor for anything, unless I have a severe injury of some kind. And even then, I will inform the doctor that if he makes it worse in any way, that it'll be his last day on earth.

I have a dentist girl friend who is totally convinced fluoride is good for you. Another example of a poorly educated professional thanks to 7 years of brain washing...
